What a c***. Maybe it's a bit disingenuous to do so, but if you discount the season before last, which I'm doing because: a) I think the last season and a quarter more accurately reflect Pardew as our manager, and b) it suits my anti-pardew stance ...then his win ratio is 29.7 % That's a percentage. Oops. You are indeed right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 "No more goals!" "Keep it tight!" When did he say that? Why was it noteworthy? Arsenal, 7-3. Great moment in my personal history of following NUFC. That was when we levelled. They went on to hit 4 more goals Love it. Ah, right. Wasn't sure if the piss take was that he wanted to keep things tight or if he had told the players "stop scoring goals!" You never know, the way some people agonise over his every utterance.

BrettNUFC Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Pardew is a c***, Hughton is certainly a far better man, no question. However i don't split their managerial abilities as they are both out of their depth in this league regardless if Pardew finished 5th once and Hughton has had a couple of mid table finishes. It's clear as day that they both aren't good enough. f***ing hell cracker barrel, that's exactly what you are doing. Screaming for Hughton to get the sack, then not doing the same for a manager who is worse! Stand back, wipe the rabid drool away from your mush, and see what a ball bag you sound. No it's not, if Pardew got sacked it wouldn't bother me, i'd be very intrigued and very reserved to the fact that likely we will be appointing someone just as s*** if not worse than Pardew so I wouldn’t be getting my hopes up. If i had of known shouting for Hughton out would lead to a managerial appointment like Pardew, i would have never done that in the first place but i honestly believed we were going to upgrade once he was rid of. That optimism has now been sapped out of me and i only envision another awful appointment was Pardew to go. So Pardew is getting your support because you are afraid we will bring in someone worse, even though he is proving a worse manager than the one you hounded out?? Again, you are an utter lunatic. Hardly support him, i'm backing him to still get results as i believe in our players ability. Our manager is hindering them but i still think it can fall right and we can push on. Not hard to grasp that. You keep banging on about how wonderful our team/squad is, and how much they have you frothing at the gash. If this is the case, then it should be destroying you that we have this clem in charge of them and making them look so mediocre. These players are wasted and for someone who thinks they are the best thing since sliced bread (haven't said that in ages!) You should be going mental with Pardew. But no, you just go along like he is doing a fine job. It's makes you come across as a lunatic and clueless about football. What's going mental going to achieve? I blame Pardew for a lot of things but i feel a lot go over the top on it as well. They will blame him for anything they can or nit pick on any quote they can which doesn't come across well. I can't be arsed for all that. I'm all for a protest against Ashley but when Pardew and the team start figuring in it, i'm not prepared to join in. I don't know what more i can say on the Pardew thing that i haven't said already. If Hughton was in this position and i firmly believed the manager coming in next was worse than him, i would be hoping for him to turn it around as well. That's all i'm doing with Pardew is backing the fact he has a talented group at his disposal and hope they can bail him out. Sacking him is a gamble and it’s a fairly simple split a opinion, either you want to take it or you don’t. Majority on here want to gamble and a few don’t, I’m one of the few.

If you're ignoring performances and only concentrating on the bottom line of points won, I can't see how you've come to that conclusion? hi HF, you'll notice that the words i used were "considering what he took over" which implies i wanted to consider more than number from here on in..i wrote half a post going through each manager's situation when they took over and then realised 4 from the end i can't be arsed i might be wrong, but he could well be the only manager on that list who wasn't brought in to stave off the threat of relegation...rather he brought it with him EDIT: i am wrong, dalglish wasn't brought in for that of course Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLK Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Sunderland deserved to win because they scored more goals than us. Doesn't matter that it was a wonder goal. What a horrible approach to look at football. You conceded more goals then they did, so you deserve to lose. If I’m a neutral watching a game of football and I see a team give it their all in trying to break down a team but then other team break away and grab a late winner, am I f*** giving them any credit for a deserved win. I still refuse to believe Chelsea were worthy winners of the Champions League, they couldn’t ride their luck like that if they tried. So, if by some miracle granted by the Gods of football, we managed to get to the final of a major competition where we played Man U and won by Cabaye hitting one of his specials into the top corner in the 89th minute, despite the fact that they spent 80 of the previous minutes battering us, you would be quite happy to hand over the trophy to Man U on the grounds that 'they played better than us'....?? Don't say you would because you will finally destroy any remaining credibility you still have as a poster. Games are won by scoring goals - one Brian Clough, himself a prolific striker, once said 'it only takes a second to score a goal'..he also said that he scored as many with his backside as his head but it didn't matter because they all count as long as they go in..... He is not saying he will not take the win. It's just that it is not deserved. You can tell the difference I hope ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLK Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Aalreet. Right, that's the introductions over with. It's funny how people can see the same event yet interpret it so differently. I saw an un-motivated, largely passive-as opposed to passionate-group of players who weren't sure what they were meant to be doing, who created almost nothing in the box, who were played out of position in some cases and who were beaten to the ball or hassled off it time and time again by inferior players. Almost a carbon copy of last April. Once was bad enough (especially with what followed the next week) but twice is unforgivable. Aye, the players need to take some of the blame but, in the main, all of the above is down to Pardew and his coaching team. The time to get rid has long passed. Fu*k off for saying it was the same as last April. Your comparison is as desgraceful as the loss we had in April. Comments like this make me wonder how delusional some fans are.

Conjo Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 He would have bought Darren Bent. That alone would have contributed to doing worse than Souness and effectively sealed his fate while also leaving the club in a worse state by having him on the wage bill until he was 34 years old. The only thing im thrilled about, considering the predicament we are in, is that Pardew is not allowed to sign who he wants. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an interesting take on it as the Pardew apologists would probably argue that he would be able to buy players which suited his long ball game more. I don't agree with it though, because I think he's a confused bloke who doesn't really have any convictions about football and probably changes his mind from week to week. So I reckon he'd still get us relegated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
